LEADERS IN THE GAS AND WELDING INDUSTRY!

Chemweld, Inc., privately owned and operated, has proudly been serving the welding industry for over 38 years. The founder, Mr. Garry McKenna, a lifetime member of the welding and industrial gas community, realized this specialized market needed a safer, more economical, and more environmentally friendly option to the dangerous and costly gas, acetylene. Based on the requirement for a needed acetylene replacement for all industries, Mr. Garry McKenna devoted his time, research, and expertise to develop Chemolene fuel gas that could reduce and replace acetylene’s growing usage. For the past 38+ years Chemweld USA has been supplying Chemolene fuel

The unique formulation of Chem-O-Lene fuel gas makes it unlike any competitive fuel. Composed entirely of combustible hydrocarbons, it burns consistently from full to empty cylinders and all pressures between. But the most significant performance advantage lies in its higher flame temperature – temperatures higher than attainable with any existing

Chem-O-Lene gas is a stable, non-toxic, non-poisonous, non-injurious fuel with limited flammability and extremely high resistance to shock and explosion. Explosive limits, in both oxygen and air are significantly lower than any competitive fuel. It may be used safely at full cylinder pressure and can be transported in standard DOT-approved

Special Hazards of Acetylene Chemical Composition: Acetylene is chemically unstable which makes it very sensitive to conditions such as excess pressure, temperature, static electricity, or mechanical shock. Exposure to any of these conditions can cause it to undergo a violent, explosive decomposition reaction. If this reaction or ignition occurs within
